At the Fan Media Days in Billund a few months ago, I had the opportunity to see all the details of three LEGO Technic space sets for March 2024. Two designers from the Technic team showed us all the features, details and new parts of the following sets:
42178 Surface Space Loader – €34.99
42180 Mars Exploration Rover – €149.99
42181 VTOL Heavy Cargo Spaceship LT81 – €99.99

I haven't been this excited for new Technic since the surprise BMW reveal two years ago. I wanna get all of these, especially that spaceship!
That Vtol ship is amazing cant wait for 2024
The amount of creativity shown in the last set is so impressive! I’m not a technic person, but I genuinely love these new sets. Might buy one of them as my first technic set ever.
I never really cared about swooshing around with lego space ships but even as an adult I wanna pick that up and take off and retract the landing gear while seeing the cockpit stay balanced.
That new 4 tooth gear is going to be great. The amount of times I’ve needed that…
Yep. Absolutely love these.
2:44 so that’s where the Osprey leftovers went. ^ _^
I've never once wanted a Technic set until I saw the VTOL. It's just DRIPPING with playability and personality! The whole design was built around the swooshability, with the open top and the rear stabilizers being set apart so they don't get in the way of your arm. AI don't typically like the look of Technic, especially with the focus on real-world vehicles. These, however, have a certain charm to them that I wouldn't mind putting on display
Took way too long to introduce 45 degrees
theres a random beep at 6:43
A surprise… maybe less Technic and more play, but a nice change… More for kids, seems to have high play value. Hopefully they get the prices right this time
Hello my friend! Have you heard the rumours about the three upcoming F1 sets? I think they will be released on March, but when do you think we will have the first pics and official leaks?
This is just awesome! A perfect mix bluring the lines between Technic and 'regular' LEGO with a load of playability and Technic functions.
I have mixed feelings. Those models are huge and I am not sure if the audience will love them… Hopefully Lego will not forget about the building machines 😛
minifigure scale technic!? it's about time.
Not my cup of tea. I'm not buying of them.
I love that they start mixing system and technic more!
Impressive designs!
I like it
The theme is great and I already decided I will buy one of these models (I have a storage space problem so cannot buy them all). And I was pretty sure that 42180 (the big rover) is the one that I want (I have a thing for things with wheels anyway). Buuut, after seeing the video, I think 42181 (the VTOL spaceship) is cooler. I don't like it when sets have too many loose accessories and that seems to apply to most of the rover's mid upper part; the "remove piece to shorten rover" idea is also not something I personally like, maybe they could have hinged it somehow on the top so that the piece stays somehow attached to the rover even if you want to store it in "short-mode". Great content nonetheless, thanks!
Brilliant!
VTOL is insane…..
very nice….it just needs some figurines. They could make the original technician figures again, which were just great
Grey tires are the selling point, it's about time, I'd like to see other colours too 😁
Personally I am more interested in the lunar module… I really hope that it will be able to be deployed.
This is awesome it reminds me of mats mission
I think that the fact those sets do not mimic any existing vehicle allows LEGO and a user as well stay open minded and create freely. I mean buying a bulldozer and a motorbike sets you can also be creative, but here this starts at the very beginning.
How nice that there is a sphere now! I will need that in my next MOC, the classic Ahrens Fox fire truck😊
That new part makes me think of an airlock. Really looking forward to the Big Space Collab that LEGO has created here.
The Technic team absolutely crushed it! I normally don't pay much attention to majority of Technic sets, but all of these are grabbing my attention. It is interesting they are designed to be interacted with Minifigs – have we ever had that with Technic sets before?
These designs are so amazingly sci fi absolutely love it
42181 looks like a spaceship v22 osprey or the Aeon 2
I really like these three technic sets. With the truck having system parts for the interior i wonder if these are minifig compatible
that new gear open sooo many new mechanism
very interesting builds, hope they make the bigger one motorized.
That VTOL is insanely cool. I'm glad they got away from doing just another plane or helicopter. And for only $100?? Day 1 buy absolutely.
Amazing central control system on the VTOL ship, but considering how heavy the build is gonna be, I think the handle might be rather thin/flat to be comfortable for swishing around.
I'm going to buy this L.E.G.O. Technic set next year it sounds serene and futuristic in my viewpoint ! 🙂
저는 이 L.E.G.O를 사려고 합니다. 내년의 기술 세트는 내 눈에는 고요하고 미래 지향적인 것처럼 들립니다! 🙂
42180 will be good set to get the portal hubs
Wow! Has technic ever done scifi? About time!
These Sci fi space technic sets are unique and awesome
I wonder why no explanation about the suspension of the space base truck. There's clearly a lot going on down there, with the linkages, but strangely enough, nothing was said about it.
I want the bigger two for SURE
It looks like the smallest set has a little handle that they collapsed, does that mean it can also be picked up by the VTOL? If so that is awesome!!!
I really like this idea! One of the biggest problems with Technic has been the subthemes, or the lack there of. Sure, we've so far only had 2 subthemes: Generic & Licensed. Yawn…
Having couple of sets in 1 theme really adds to the playability and also collection aspects.
I'm going to have to get all of these for me and my son
I want two of those VTOLs so I can make a 4 engine moc
I love the 42180 Mars Exploration Rover. I want one.
I want a moon buggy like this and with these colours
